After a 30-year career in strategy and finance, I retired from corporate life to explore life at sea aboard Indiscretion, an ocean-going Nordhavn 43 trawler we kept at Shilshole Marina in Seattle. After our son passed away in a motorcycle accident in 2022, we relocated to Arizona to bring us closer to our daughter in Los Angeles and allow us to the space to grieve and heal.

I write to share ideas and experiences that I believe could help others who might be on a similar path. I believe deeply that making a difference in the lives of others is an important purpose in life, and I hope these infrequent posts can help, even in a small way.
